    Joey, Dale, Mike, and Ginny--My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time. I have never forgotten how your mother cared so much about other children and went out of her way to get as many as possible to church. She was a very special woman. May God Bless and Comfort the whole family. Sincerely Cathy Griffin, Denman Griffin and Beth Houston

    Growing up, I had more than one momma. I had the one that bore and raised me, and Momma Ruby, who also played a big part in me becoming who I am. Although I'm not a blood member of her family, She made me feel like I was there all along. Joey, Dale, Mike, and Ginny, my heart, thoughts, prayers, and love are with you during this time.
